This time, it's different from the last time.

This time it was a real blow.

Under the rage, Guo naturally launched a dimensional reduction attack on Shangshutai.

He seized Cheng Yu's position as Minister of Personnel, fined him two years of salary, demoted him to two levels to the first-class uncle, seized 500 households, and only retained his position as a warning to others.

He seized the salary of the Minister of the Shangshu Pushe and the Minister of Works of the Ministry of Works for two years, and was demoted to the third-class ranks, and seized 400 households to serve as a warning to others.

He seized the salary of Cao Cao, the chief minister of the cabinet, for three months, and seized 100 households as a punishment.

He seized the salary of the Censor Zhongcheng Qiao Rui for three months and seized 100 households as a punishment.

He seized the salary of Wang Can, the Minister of Finance, for one month to show his warning.

The salary of Zao Zhi, the Minister of Civil Affairs, was seized for one month to show his warning.

He seized Cui Yan's position as Minister of Rites, his title, his fief, and his emperor's land of 1,070 acres, his blessings and blessings were taken away, and he was dismissed from the capital and returned to his hometown to farm.

Cui Yan himself was not allowed to hire him for his entire life, and Cui Yan's descendants were not allowed to be officials for three generations. All the political forces of the Cui family were eliminated, allowing him to get out of Luoyang barely.

The 23 officials from the Ministry of Works, who were involved in the fight, were all dismissed from their posts.

All Yiyingren and others were deposed as common people, driven out of the capital, abolished their original household registration, moved to Dunhuang County, Liangzhou, and incorporated into military farming, and were not allowed to hire them for life, and their descendants were not allowed to be officials for three generations.

All 264 officials of the Shangshutai who participated in the besieging of the Censorate were dismissed. Forty-seven people who were serious were deposed as commoners and moved their families to Xuantu County, Pingzhou to farm. They were not allowed to be officials for life, and their descendants were not allowed to enter the official position for three generations.

More than 300 officials were sentenced to one breath.

As soon as this judgment was released and announced to the Shangshu Desk, it immediately caused a collective shock to the entire bureaucratic group.

The reason is also very simple, the penalty this time is too heavy.

Compared to the last time he raised high and fell gently, this time, the emperor didn't even raise his feet and kicked everyone away with one kick.

This time, like the last time, it was a political struggle, but this time the penalty was much scarier than the last time.

More than 300 officials were implicated, the best was demoted, and the worst was the fight between the people. One of them was driven out of the capital, and three generations were not allowed to be officials.

No senior officials were dismissed before, and everyone just gave a small punishment, and the content of this punishment was quite terrible.

It is considered light to surrender titles and seize fiefs.

Cheng Yu, the tycoon of the Shangshutai, directly lost the authority of the Ministry of Personnel, and was abolished as the Minister of Personnel, and only the position of the Minister of Personnel was retained.

The worst thing is Cui Yan, who was directly deposed as a commoner and drove out of the capital, lost all the things he had, and was not allowed to become an official in his life, and his political career was directly zeroed.

This doesn't count, it will also bring disaster to future generations.

The descendants are not allowed to serve as officials for three generations, and the political power accumulated by several generations is directly returned to zero.

The emperor's reason was that Cui Yan was unfair in his actions and had too much selfishness. Both sides had mistakes and actually focused on punishing one side, obviously he was favoring the other side and was not worthy of being an official at all.

This behavior annoyed the emperor, so the emperor beat Cui Yan to death with one stick.

The officials who were beaten to death with Cui Yan were also beaten to death.

Because of the quarrel, I lost my appearance and the attitude of officials. I fought and bleeded at the feet of the emperor. I did not handle official duties and ranked personal resentment before official duties. I was extremely selfish and did not deserve to be an official at all.

These people were also beaten to death with one stick, and they also hit their descendants.

Not only did he not have an official position, he was enrolled as a civilian, but he also lost his original household registration and was exiled to Dunhuang County, Liangzhou, and was not allowed to serve as an official for three generations.

The treatment is even worse than those who have violated Guo Peng's taboo before.

Those people went to Jincheng County, and these people were sent to the farther Dunhuang County and Xuantu County.

Due to the overly strict punishment measures, the entire Shangshutai bureaucratic group fell into a short-term downtime.

During this period, three officials submitted a statement to Guo Peng to tell whether such punishment was too strict and hoped that some punishment measures could be reduced.

However, it is the issue of swearing and fighting between officials, which is at most a matter of personal qualities, not political or corruption. Why should we punish such a severe way?

If even such problems have to be punished in such a severe way, wouldn’t political and corruption problems be killed in the future?

They think most people are innocent and should not be subject to even being caught.

Officials who have not made any mistakes should not be punished, and it is not the way for a wise ruler to be wise.

Many people are involved and have no choice but to choose. They are helpless. I hope Guo Peng can understand.

Guo Peng ignored them.

This is when he expands the scope of the attack to centralize power, and you actually stop it?

Of course, if you stay here, don’t post it, just pretend that you didn’t see it.

As a result, they saw that Guo Peng was silent about this and felt that there should be a chance. They actually gathered more than ten people to submit the report, and handed it out with sixteen comments, asking Guo Peng to handle it with lenient treatment.

He strongly demanded to narrow the scope of the attack, punish the main evil, and let go of middle and low-level officials who were forced to join.

Their behavior completely angered Guo Peng.

In a rage, Guo Peng ordered the sixteen officials who had submitted the above to be beaten thirty and threw them into prison, and severely punished for offending the emperor.

The censor Guo Honghui, who had been pretending to be sick before but has now recovered suddenly, and Guo Yi, the Minister of Justice, who had been an ostrich, interrogated the case overnight.

This time, Sansi's work efficiency is as fast as lightning.

The next morning, before dawn, they joined forces to depose the sixteen officials to common people, deprive them of their original household registration, and exil to the Jiuquan County, Liangzhou to farm.

This interrogation decision was immediately recognized by Guo Peng and implemented immediately and must not be changed.

Guo Peng felt that it was not enough and the punishment was not serious enough, so he added three additional punishment measures that were not allowed to be officials, which hit their descendants with another blow.

As a result, the number of officials involved increased again.

Among them, the officials who lost their official positions and were exiled to Beijing rose to 106.

Only forty-seven out of these 106 people did not involve their descendants, but they were not allowed to be officials for the rest of their lives.

Having said that, after losing their original household registration and being moved to Liangzhou, their political future was basically abolished.

A place like Liangzhou does not have as good interpersonal network as Zhongyuan Prefecture and County provide them with the opportunity to become officials.

Start again?

How long will it take?

Unless Liangzhou quickly becomes a prosperous place, they will have the opportunity to return to the court.

This is pretty good.

The fifty-nine families behind the remaining fifty-nine people were not allowed to be officials for three consecutive generations, and they were exiled to Liangzhou to participate in military farming and build Liangzhou. The political career within a hundred years was directly zeroed. After a hundred years... who still remembers them?

That's such a harsh punishment.

The emperor was furious and terrified, so no one dared to speak out again.

All the officials were frightened and silent. They didn't dare to say a word or even a memorial, for fear that they would be implicated.

The officials who were punished but did not leave Luoyang were even more afraid to speak out. They took the lead with Cheng Yu, who had a pale face, and went to the Qinzheng Hall to confess their guilt to the emperor, begging the emperor to ease his thunderous anger.

After hanging them for an hour and a half, Guo Peng asked Su Yuan to come out of Qinzheng Hall and let them all get out of the way.

Do what you should do honestly, do practical things, and then dare to gossip and be careful of your descendants and three generations!

The officials felt sad.

Although the terrible punishment came to an end, Guo Peng's thunderous anger and sudden severe punishment made every official confused.

This is true for Cheng Yu, Tian Feng, Cao Cao, and Qiao Rui.
